Let me start off by saying that I liked the book very much. No LOTR, but a good read. The movie on the other hand...I can't believe I actually finished watching it. I'm pretty convinced that the screenwriters never even read the book. They jumped through the story so much that it didn't make any sense. They threw in characters willy-nilly without explaining who they were or why they were important. Even though I knew the story, I was confused. They even changed the basic rules of the world!! And don't even get me started on the obvious changes they made simply to save money. (Human Urgles???)
So, don't see the movie. EVER. Not even if it's free and you're bored out of your mind. But do read the book.

It was a horrible movie. Now I wasn't a huge fan of the book. It was entertaining but very forgettable. I just hate when movies can't make up their mind what accent they want to use for the whole thing. Either be British or American don't be both!
Tell it brother!
